I am not sure if other people experience this at all. My
guess this is probably common.
Whenever the escalator is not working and I need to step on or off a stationary escalator, my feet behave as if the escalator is moving based on muscle memory. I actually need to force myself to “overwrite” that memory in order not to stumble over. I think like many habits or patterns in our life that we are used to, getting rid of them is no picnic. “Old habits die hard!”. However, it is not impossible.
